More Show More Episodes Critic Reviews for Young Sheldon Season 1 All Critics (46) | Top Critics (19) | Fresh (35) | Rotten (11) It has got a lot of heart, and plenty of laughs. Mar 23, 2018 | Full Review… Justin Burke The Australian Top Critic Young Sheldon ends up having a mind of its own, even if it's a prequel to a long-established hit. Sep 22, 2017 | Rating: A- | Full Review… Ed Bark Uncle Barky Top Critic Little Sheldon is an easily anxious fellow who tattles and condescends. He'd be a turnoff except that the charming young star and Parsons' narration confer great appeal. Sep 22, 2017 | Full Review… Hal Boedeker Orlando Sentinel Top Critic Young Sheldon is surprising for all the right reasons; so much so, it's hard to tell exactly where it will go next. Sep 25, 2017 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Ben Travers indieWire Top Critic What's funny in Sheldon/adult is grating in Sheldon/child. Sep 24, 2017 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic What we have instead is a warm-hearted, coming-of-age tale in the style of The Wonder Years. But without a Parsons-level comic talent among the cast, this series will live or die based on whether the writers can create characters worth falling for. Feb 23, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… Catherine Gee Daily Telegraph (UK) Top Critic A halo of nostalgia and family drama permeates the series, and the mix is surprising. [Full Review in Spanish] Aug 8, 2019 | Full Review… Alberto Carlos Espinof As with the adult Sheldon, there are just enough outbreaks of sweetness to make you love him, despite everything. Jun 28, 2018 | Full Review… Alison Rowat The Herald (Scotland) Thankfully shorn of laughter track, it will surprise some with its (relative) delicacy, its long, nice, un-busy single-camera shots, at stark odds with its frenetic parent show. Mar 12, 2018 | Full Review… Euan Ferguson Observer (UK) It's smart and lively without being terribly amusing. Mar 4, 2018 | Full Review… John Boland Irish Independent But for those who can handle a smattering of schmaltz with their diet of sitcom, the laugh count should more than compensate. Feb 20, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Brian Donaldson The List Yet, lacking the cynical wit at which Big Bang and the Jim Parsons-portrayed grown-up Sheldon excels, this single-camera 1989-set comedy doesn't play to it obvious strengths. Nov 29, 2017 | Full Review… Dominic Patten Deadline Hollywood Daily View All Critic Reviews (46) Audience Reviews for Young Sheldon: Season 1 Apr 20, 2020 Hi everyone, A series that I am watching right now is Young Sheldon, it is a program that I've been watching this quarentine, and I really like. The program shows the life of an American family with Sheldon, a very intelligent boy. I think everyone should watch this series, because it is very funny and interesting at the same time. For me, the only thing that I don't like about it, is that each episode is to short for me, but I hope that doesn't bother you. This series has only three seasons, but all of them are great in every aspect. Hope you've all enjoyed my review. Enlgish project L Jan 15, 2020 Very funny show. Simple and refreshing. Thomas P Sep 02, 2019 Pure garbage. It's not funny at all. It doesn't carry the spirit of the Big Bang series. And now that the BBT SITCOM is cancelled, I have no nice words about how this Wonder Years rip-off seems to try to make sense of Sheldon Cooper. NOPE. NOPE, NOPE. Don't waste your time. Eric W Apr 29, 2019 This humorous story of a beloved character is fresh and great to watch. With great performances from the whole cast, it makes this a very watchable series. Also, it is not just littered with jokes, it builds up to them with great themes and good characters who make up Sheldon's entertaining but annoying family. Daniel H Apr 07, 2019 This show is absolutely hilarious! The show explains how Sheldon is shaped today by his family Drea J Apr 07, 2019 This is an amazing show can't wait for more season Jim B Jan 18, 2019 Season 1 is amazing. Must watch. Humour with sense . The cast is good. Siddhi T Nov 21, 2018 Sheldons mom isn't even the mom that plays as Sheldons mom in the big bang theory. Probably couldn't get her because she is already playing on another crappy show they should have left in the 90's, the conners. Whoever thought of this didn't really think about what has already transpired on the big bang theory about Sheldon. This show is just annoying. Jane M Oct 05, 2018 I will admit to having never watched the Big Bang Theory... haha. However, I find this show on its own to be charming and funny. Kenny B Aug 19, 2018 Incredibly funny, well-written show. My favorite show. Every episode has been wonderful. This is not a show for children, but they can watch. They will probably like the show but the humor is targeted at adults. Annie Potts is outstanding. This o Dey is hysterical. Youll be laughing. Dont miss it.
